I've found that to be an uphill and useless battle.
The key to enjoying charity work is to buy into the mission. Stay focused on the mission and not the details. Remember why you joined it and stay close to that.
Odds are this charity is larger than you, but it's mission may suit you well.
If not, then I really would find another.
Ideally charity work should give both ways - to you and to the charity.

Thanks, well i'm not going into the charity for complete self fullfillment, I want to stay in the charity because I really like the leaders they are so nice and understand my needs and avoids.
I have a hard time with people anyway, and I think because so many changes happen in the group it's hard for me to adjust as quickly as everyone else.
I'm not trying to change anything about the charity, I think they are set up well and offer people a life line in some extreme cases.
I want to help out but in an environment which works both ways as you said, thanks for your advice.
